Lot 1462
1883 Hawaiian Dollar. NGC graded MS-62. Well struck with lovely light gold toning. A handsome looking coin. Frosty and sharply struck, the smooth surfaces would settle for nothing less than the MS 62 grade with perhaps a nod given to a slightly higher designation. We have mentioned the luster which abounds over the surface on both sides. There is one almost-invisible reed mark in the field below the first A in KALAKAUA. Also noted (and thus limiting the grade), a few faint hairlines in the reverse field. In winding up what we believe is a very fair description, we point to it being a strongly struck coin -- as with most others in the illustrious group we take pride in offering. The coin displays nice detail to all the important high points. Pop 9; 47 finer at NGC. (PCGS # 10995) .
Estimated Value $5,000 - 6,000.
From the 9/09 Hawaii Collection.
